Datum Variable

Hi,
how I can assign a date to a variable ?:o
I have no idea .... any smal tip ?
thx
thumbyou do not know this and it is time for mid terms. college gets more expensive and you get less out of it.

Declare @.MyVar datetime

SET @.MyVar = GETDATE()|||thanks for your answer and your time.

my problem was

DECLARE @.geburtstag DATETIME

SET @.geburtstag = '23.07.1968'

correctly is that

DECLARE @.geburtstag DATETIME

SET @.geburtstag = '23-07-1968'

thx
